4 servings
- 1 large head cauliflower (about 2 lb), cut into florets
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
- 1 medium apple (such as honeycrisp or fuji), peeled and finely diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp fresh sage leaves, finely chopped
- ⅓ cup full-fat coconut milk
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- ¾ tsp fine sea salt, plus more to taste
- ¼ tsp ground ginger
Ingredient noteGround ginger is generally considered bladder-friendly, and the small amount in this recipe (~1/16 tsp per serving) is likely fine for many people with interstitial cystitis. If you prefer to always avoid ground ginger, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
For serving
- fresh sage leaves, for serving (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Fill a large pot with 1–2 inches of water and bring to a boil over high heat. Place the cauliflower florets in a steamer basket set over the boiling water, cover, and steam for 12–15 minutes, until completely tender when pierced with a fork and a floret breaks apart with gentle pressure.

While the cauliflower steams, heat the coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the diced apple and cook, stirring occasionally, for 4–5 minutes, until softened and lightly golden at the edges.
